The Gauteng Department of Education has reminded parents and guardians that the online admission applications for the 2024 academic year will open on Thursday, 15 June.
Applications will open on 15 June 2023 at 08:00 and close on 14 July 2023 at 00:00.
GAUTENG ONLINE ADMISSION APPLICATIONS TO OPEN
The Gauteng Department of Education said after an analysis of various online parent surveys and stakeholder consultations, the system has now been enhanced to follow a single application process.
This will allow all applicants (both Grade 1 and 8) to apply at the same time during the application period and offers will also be issued at the same time during the placement process.

Gauteng Education MEC Matome Chiloane said during the application period, applicants will be required to create login credentials (username and password) which they will use to access the online admissions system. Once applicants have gained access to the system, they must begin with the registration process and ensure they follow each application step correctly.
“In every step there will be constant communicating via SMS,” he said.
Parents and guardians have also been advised against using internet cafes but have instead been encouraged to use walking centres at the Gauteng Education’s district offices and schools to be able to do the applications.
